Democrats have held un unbroken majority in the state legislature and the judicial branch of state government since Reconstruction. And with the exception of the administrations of Dave Treen (1980-84) and Buddy Roemer (switched to GOP in middle of hie tet'D\, 1988-1992), Democrats have held the governor's mansion. current Governor Edwin Edwards is the standard bearer of the Democrat machine and its crippling ideoloqy of dependence on government which has been solidly in place since the days of Huey Lonq's practical dictatorship. Louisiana qovernment has often resembled that of a third world country than that of a state in the World's qreatest democracy. Governor Bdwin Bdvard• Edwin Edwards is a masterful politician.

Shogan Deputy Director and Senior Specialist November 26, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL30261 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Women in the United States Congress: 1917-2012 Summary Ninety-four women currently serve in the 112th Congress: 77 in the House (53 Democrats and 24 Republicans) and 17 in the Senate (12 Democrats and 5 Republicans). Ninety-two women were initially sworn in to the 112th Congress, two women Democratic House Members have since resigned, and four others have been elected. This number (94) is lower than the record number of 95 women who were initially elected to the 111th Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was Representative Jeannette Rankin (R-MT, 1917-1919, 1941-1943). The first woman to serve in the Senate was Rebecca Latimer Felton (D-GA). She was appointed in 1922 and served for only one day. A total of 278 women have served in Congress, 178 Democrats and 100 Republicans. Of these women, 239 (153 Democrats, 86 Republicans) have served only in the House of Representatives; 31 (19 Democrats, 12 Republicans) have served only in the Senate; and 8 (6 Democrats, 2 Republicans) have served in both houses. These figures include one non-voting Delegate each from Guam, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Currently serving Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) holds the record for length of service by a woman in Congress with 35 years (10 of which were spent in the House).

  • Collection 93 Osborne, Ollie Tucker (1911-1994)
    Collection 93 Osborne, Ollie Tucker (1911-1994). Papers, 1927-1985 22 feet Ollie Tucker Osborne's papers detail the activities of one of Louisiana's leading advocates of women's rights during the 1970s. Ollie was extremely active in the League of Women Voters and the Evangeline ERA coalition. She attended conferences or workshops throughout the South. She was appointed to the 1977 state women's convention in Baton Rouge and was elected a state delegate to the national convention in Houston. She helped organize or coordinate a number of workshops and conferences in Louisiana on women's rights. Much of this often frenetic activity can be seen through her papers. Osborne was born in northern Louisiana and educated at Whitmore College and Louisiana State University. Just before graduation she married Louis Birk, a salesman for McGraw-Hill & Company, and moved to New York. After several false starts Osborne launched a career in public relations and advertising which she pursued for twenty years. This included some pioneering work in television advertising. Following the sudden death of Birk in 1952, Osborne returned to Louisiana where she met and married Robert Osborne, an English professor at the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now the University of Louisiana at Lafayette). During the next two decades she was busy as president of Birk & Company, a publisher of reading rack pamphlets. Osborne's introduction to politics at the state level was as an official League of Women Voters observer of the 1973 Constitutional Convention. Early in the year she determined that some on-going communication link was necessary to allay voter fear and apathy about the new constitution.

  • Housing Desegregation in the Era of Deregulation Christopher Bonastia
    Housing Desegregation in the Era of Deregulation Christopher Bonastia hen Jimmy Carter was sworn into the nation’s highest office on January 20, 1977, Civil Rights supporters mustered some hope. In “The State of Black WAmerica—1977,” the Urban League reflected this tempered optimism: After eight years of a national Administration that blacks—rightly or wrongly—regarded as hostile to their needs and aspirations, they now feel that 1977 might bring a change in direction and that possibly the same type of moral leadership that led the nation to accept the legiti- macy of black demands for equality during the 60s, might once again be present in Washington.1 While 94 percent of Black voters supported Carter, the intensity with which the administration would address issues of racial inequality was unclear. As Hugh Davis Graham notes, Carter “stepped into a policy stream that since the late 1960s had carried two conflicting currents”: the “white backlash” politics ex- emplified by Nixon’s “Southern strategy,” and “the quiet mobilization of a com- prehensive regime of civil rights regulation. By the mid-1970s, the expanded civil rights coalition, under the adept coordination of the Leadership Confer- ence on Civil Rights, had won bipartisan respect in Congress for its ability to mobilize constituency group support.” However, Civil Rights gains tended to come in “complex areas little understood by the general public, such as employee testing and minority hiring tables,” rather than in high-profile issues such as housing desegregation.2 While housing had ranked high on Carter’s list of legislative priorities, his focus was on bolstering construction, home ownership, public housing, and rent subsidies rather than fair-housing issues.3 Ironically, fair-housing proponents would have been pleased if HUD’s commitment to desegregation under Carter Christopher Bonastia is a professor of sociology at Lehman College and the City University of New York Graduate Center and the associate director of honors programs at Lehman College.
